Amazing shots. I see that you are using an R5, and I am guessing a 500/4 or 600/4. Do you mind giving some details like which lens, handheld or on a tripod with a gimbal etc. I just switched from Nikon Z7 with 500mm PF to Canon R5 With 500mm f4 IS II for birds in flight. I miss the Nikon PFs small size and light weight, but now most of my picks are razor sharp. Also, with the Nikon I had to turn off the VR for maximum sharpened at high shutter speeds. With the Canon lens it’s sharp either way.

Thanks Joe, I was shooting handheld with the 600 III... but I sold that lens about a week ago. Right now waiting on the RF version. Also waiting to see what the R3 brings to the table.
I agree that is a spectacular set of photos. Also, exceptional technique considering you were handholding a 600mm f4. Your arms must get tired, but the results are well worth the effort.
